As a girl standing at 6'2", I don't think I could count on my hands and feet how many remarks I get about being tall. It doesn't matter where I am, who says it, or if it's appropriate or not – as soon as I walk outside my room I know I'll get some sort of comment on my height. Whether you're a boy or a girl, if you're tall then you've most likely heard something along these lines.
1. "Oh my god, you're SO tall!
Thank you, random person. All my life I thought I was short! If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have come to this realization.
2. "How tall are you?!!"
I don't know, how short are you?!!
3. "Do you play basketball?"
I've never played a sport in my life, nor do I have the coordination to play any. Nice try though.
4. "You should be a model!"
I'm flattered, really, thank you for boosting my self-esteem. However, just because I'm tall does not mean I am fit to be a model.
5. Random people feeling the need to tell you about their tall friend/relative/coworker.
I honestly don't care about your son's best friend, your nephew, or coworker's daughter, but I'll stand here and pretend like I do to be polite.
6. "How's the weather up there?"
LOL, wow I've never heard that one before!!! You're so funny and completely original!
7. "Why don't you like being tall?"
I mean, besides the fact I have to buy all my pants and shoes online to ensure a size that fits and being taller than every attractive boy I see, it's a blast! Seriously! Love it!
8. "You're blocking the view."
Uhm, I am the view.
9. "You can so wear heels!"
Please, stop lying to yourself.
10. "Normally I'm the tall one, you make me feel so short!"
Not to be rude, but you must have friends all under 5'5" because you're not really that tall.
11. "You gotta find yourself a nice, tall basketball player or something."
Are you sure they exist? Cause I can't seem to find any.
